I am painting the metaphysical aspects of perception and consciousness, using chance and Surrealist processes to shape materials into emergent imagery that are visual meditations on the numinous, mysterious, and beautiful experiences in life.

Art is a threshold between the embodied and spiritual worlds, where sensory, emotional, and spiritual experiences converge, creating different ways of seeing and understanding life. My paintings explore visual perception and the flow of consciousness, reflecting the fluid nature of thought and my curiosity about how individual perceptions, memories, and emotional states shape our interpretations and experiences of reality.

The psychological imagery and transcendent landscapes reference nature, mythology, and the figure, continually fusing, fragmenting, and evolving into new forms. These shifting forms reflect the fluid nature of thought and explore our interconnectedness with nature and one another.

Working on the floor, I use water, surface height, and gravity to direct watercolor, inks, and pigments across the canvas, allowing fields of color, lines, shapes, pours, and organic edges to flow and stain the raw canvas freely. I intuitively respond to imagery emerging from the stains, guided by subconscious associations and the symbolic use of color. The resulting imagery reflects my fascination with the numinous, the magical, and the mysteries of the universe.

The paintings draw in curiosity, interpretation, and contemplation, inviting viewers to bring their own interpretations, memories, sensations, and emotions.
